Alessandro Pigati

Since 2023, I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Decision Sciences of Bocconi University. Previously, I was a Courant Instructor at CIMS (New York University).
I obtained my PhD in mathematics at ETH Zürich, under the supervision of Tristan Rivière, after receiving my master's degree from the University of Pisa and Scuola Normale Superiore, under the supervision of Luigi Ambrosio and Davide Vittone. A recent CV is available here.
You can contact me by email.
